that's been egypt and mohamed morsi. he's largely credited by the u.s. for helping the cease-fire deal happen. but he did something extraordinary overnight, which he gave himself some new administrative powers, essentially makes all of this rulings over the last five months and going forward immune from any kind of legal challenges. some people are saying this is just the next step in becoming more of a dictator here. was he taking advantage of the situation? >> well, we'll have to watch this closely. it appears, you know, the timing is curious. he's gotten the support and this pump, particularly for this role in mediating the cease-fire from the united states, and from others. he's really seen as emerging stronger from this. but this is an issue that goes back to whether the judiciary in egypt was appointed by mubarak and a check on the executive branch. and what he said is this is a temporary, until they have a constitution, a temporary step. so we'll have to see if anything looks like it's being put into place permanent could be a big problem for demo

egypt needs american capital. egypt needs the united states to help persuade other countries and coordinate other countries giving money to egypt to help the economy, and these kinds of steps makes it harder for the united states to do that. i think mohamed morsy understands that. i think he's looking at the u.s. reaction. and i think a measured but strong response is better than trying to shift the tides of history because i think ultimately, you can't shift tides but you can do a constructive set of steps that help people think more clearly about what they're doing. >> i know we're bouncing around a bit but i want to talk more about what's happening on the border with gaza and israel. this week, when the leader of hamas said that israel waved the white flag, he also said he was grateful to iran for their support. what is iran's role moving forward? >> well, nobody really knows that. i think if you thought that you saw spin rooms after the presidential debates i think you're seeing much more high-powered spin roo

of course, with egypt as a immediatier, with the israelis. this time around, they were able to have at least some of their demands be met. first and foremost among those was that the border crossings order, that there is an easing of movement, of people, of goods. and then of course for both sides, it was stopping the violence. the israelis wanted to see an end to the rockets being launched at their population. the palestinians, hamas, wanted to see an end to israel's targeted assassinations to what they call israeli aggression against them. so for many here, this time around versus four years ago, they were able to actually, with an intermediary, again, negotiate a cease-fire. in the sense that they were able to force the israeli side to agree to some of their terms. but we'll have to see if those critical details are, in fact, implemented. will the border crossings really open? will the sea ports really be open? will people be able to have that freedom of movement that they are looking for? this is still, very much, as you say, a first step

i fear, too, you said egypt. egypt now is an entirely different country. it's governed by morsi, a member of the muslim brotherhood and also for our american viewers he's a member of the muslim brotherhood between hamas in palestinian can territories and the muslim brotherhood. morsi is between a rock and a hard place. he's under tremendous pressure and also his relationship with the united states. that's why i believe that egypt has a very constructive role to play in the deescalation. >> we'll see how that plays out. i hate to interrupt, but we have a lot going on. thank you very much. fawaz gerges. of course, we'll have you back. let's go to asia where president obama is on a historic tour this morning. his first stop is thailand. we'll tell you why this trip sets him apart from other u.s. presidents.
